Facial recognition is a biometric system used to identify individuals through faces. Although this technology has many advantages, it still faces several challenges. One of the main challenges is that the level of accuracy has yet to reach its maximum potential. This research aims to improve facial recognition performance by applying the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and Gaussian mixture model (GMM), which are then trained with backward propagation of errors (backpropagation) and convolutional neural networks (CNN). The research results show low DCT and GMM feature extraction accuracy with backpropagation of 4.88%. However, the combination of DCT, GMM, and CNN feature extraction produces an accuracy of up to 98.2% and a training time of 360 seconds on the Olivetti Research Laboratory (ORL) dataset, an accuracy of 98.9% and a training time of 1210 seconds on the Yale dataset, and 100% accuracy and training time 1749 seconds on the Japanese female facial expression (JAFFE) dataset. This improvement is due to the combination of DCT, GMM, and CNN's ability to remove noise and study images accurately. This research is expected to significantly contribute to overcoming accuracy challenges and increasing the flexibility of facial recognition systems in various practical situations, as well as the potential to improve security and reliability in security and biometrics.

10.11591/ijict.v14i1.pp141-152
Dhwani Hakani , Palvinder Singh Mann
Firewalls are essential for safety and are used for protecting a great deal of private networks. A firewall’s goal is to examine every incoming and outgoing data before granting access. A notable kind of conventional firewall is the rule-based firewall. However, when it comes to job performance, traditional listed-rule firewalls are limited, and they become useless when utilized with some networks that have extremely big firewall rule sets. This study proposes a model firewall architecture called “TreeRule Firewall,” which has benefits and functions effectively in large-scale networks like “cloud.” In order to improve cloud network security, this study suggests a modified tree rule firewall (MTRF cloud) that eliminates rule discrepancies. For the matching firewall policy, this work creates a tree rule firewall. There are no duplicate rules created by the proposed improved tree rule firewall. Also, memory utilization of different size rules is compared.

In the past few years, biosensor technology has paved the way for new insights into the physiological effects of physical exercise. Quantitative analysis, especially in the case of muscle capacity measurement, is the focus of studies to assess the impact of sports activities. Therefore, this study examines the impact of sports activity intensity on muscle capacity using an integrated biosensor system developed at Bandung State Polytechnic. Surface electromyography (sEMG) measurements were conducted on 30 participants aged 20–25 during various sports activities. Results showed a strong positive correlation (r=0.814) between sports activity frequency and muscle contraction, suggesting higher activity correlates with increased muscle activity. Conversely, the correlation during muscle relaxation was low (r=0.261), indicating independence from sports activity. In the future, it is expected that integrated biosensors will have the ability to concurrently measure and monitor various parameters like heart rate (via electrocardiogram), blood oxygen levels (via photoplethysmography), and blood pressure. The integrated biosensor system allows for comprehensive assessment and optimization of sports performance and injury prevention strategies.

Acquiring up-to-date knowledge about various animals will have a significant impact on effectively managing species within the ecosystem. Manually identifying animals and their traits continues to be a costly and time-consuming process. The development of a system using the most recent developments in computer vision machine learning was necessary to address the issues of detecting sharks and aquatic species in areas filled with surfers, rocks, and various other potential false positives. In the ocean most of the species are cold-blooded animals hence they cannot be tracked with thermal cameras. Ocean’s dynamic environment affects simple techniques like color separation, intensity histograms, and optical flow. Hence a hybrid approach using convolutional neural network - support vector machine (CNN-SVM) classifier is proposed to perform the pattern recognition. A CNN is employed for feature extraction by using the histogram of gradients value. Subsequently, a SVM classifier is employed to identify and categorise marine species in the vicinity of the seacoast. This serves to notify individuals who engage in swimming activities in the ocean. The suggested model is evaluated against alternative machine learning approaches, and it achieves a superior accuracy of 95% compared to the others.
